Leviticus 16:18-31

¹⁸And he shall go out unto the altar which is before Jehovah, and make atonement for it; and shall take of the blood of the bullock, and of the goat, and put it upon the horns of the altar round about;

¹⁹and he shall sprinkle upon it of the blood with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and hallow it from the uncleannesses of the children of Israel.

²⁰And when he hath ended making atonement for the sanctuary, and the tent of meeting, and the altar, he shall present the living goat;

²¹and Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the living goat, and confess over it all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, and he shall put them on the head of the goat, and shall send him away to the wilderness by the hand of a man standing ready;

²²that the goat may bear upon him all their iniquities to a land apart from men; and he shall send away the goat into the wilderness.

²³And Aaron shall go into the tent of meeting, and shall put off the linen garments, which he put on when he went into the sanctuary, and shall leave them there;

²⁴and he shall bathe his flesh with water in a holy place, and put on his garments, and go forth, and offer his burnt-offering, and the burnt-offering of the people, and make atonement for himself, and for the people.

²⁵And the fat of the sin-offering shall he burn upon the altar.

²⁶And he that letteth go the goat for Azazel shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water; and afterwards he may come into the camp.

²⁷And the bullock of the sin-offering, and the goat of the sin-offering whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the sanctuary, shall one carry forth outside the camp; and they shall burn with fire their skins, and their flesh, and their dung.

²⁸And he that burneth them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water; and afterwards he may come into the camp.

²⁹And this shall be an everlasting statute unto you. In the seventh month, on the tenth of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all, the home-born, and the stranger that sojourneth among you;

³⁰for on that day shall atonement be made for you, to cleanse you: from all your sins shall ye be clean before Jehovah.

³¹A sabbath of rest shall it be unto you, and ye shall afflict your souls: it is an everlasting statute.
